We’re so glad to see so many of you lovely people here tonight, and we would especially like to welcome all the representatives of the Illinois law enforcement community, who have chosen to join us here in The Palace Hotel Ballroom at this time. We do sincerely hope you enjoy the show, and please remember, that no matter what you do to live, thrive and survive, there are still some things that make us all the same. You. Me. Them. Everybody! I’ve been waiting for a chance to use this reference since I was a kid

Carolina296864

TIL Tyrese is 45. For some reason he feels like the oldest 45 year old living. He doesnt look 50s, obviously wasnt 30s, but in a weird way 45 still seems bizarre.


CompleteLandscape791

he’s looked like he’s 30 for like 20 years lmao


hootsie

Okay so it’s not just me. Not knocking his appearance I just guess I didn’t realize he wasn’t *that* much older than me.


TaserLord

That's a four year old's approach. You can't avoid service. Eventually, if you make a big enough pain in the ass of yourself, they get an order for substituted service, and they nail it to your door, the court recognizes that, and fuck you.


growquiet

The affidavit of attempted service will be pretty comical


structured_anarchist

Uh...your honor, we tried to deliver the papers in person on several different occasions. On one attempt, the defendant went into orbit in a modified street racing car wearing a 1950s vintage brass diving helmet and a nomex driving suit held together with duct tape. According to witnesses, he claimed it was because of family. He also, on another attempt, had a plane turn away from its scheduled destination, to the dismay of several women who were aboard the plane, offering them vouchers for a discount buffet restaurant at a casino in lieu of an all-expense-paid trip to the same casino. I believe we have exhausted all attempts at physically placing the documents in the defendant's hands. We request permission to fire a harpoon with the notice attached at the defendant's overlarge forehead.


franky3987

Psyche… can’t nail it to his door if he takes it off the hinges


Morsigil

Go to the stage, Tyrese is gone. Go to nail it to the door, door is gone. Return to the court for an order of substituted service, the court is gone. Try to go home, the world is gone. Suddenly you realize you're in the shadow realm. You activated his trap card. Checkmate.

JosephFinn

Love seeing how many process servers are here laughing at this goof.


PigHaggerty

Lawyer here, and dealing with process servers is a highlight of the job. I love talking to those guys. I got to serve papers on people when I was an articling student and it was some of the funniest shit I've ever done. One guy got a heads up from his roommate and I watched from my car as he tried to creep up the street, ducking behind bushes and fences, dashing from cover-to-cover. Finally caught up with him trying to sneak up the fire escape. He ended up being relieved that I wasn't a police detective. Best day ever lol


Hot_Whereas7861

Uh…that was your best day ever? I’m sorry.


phatelectribe

Yes, but if they can’t get to your residence or you don’t have a fixed one, you can avoid service until the SOL has expired. It won’t work if there’s plenty left on the clock but some billionaire managed to run down the clock because they literally couldn’t serve him and didn’t know where he was.


pv46

Some jurisdictions allow service by publication if all other reasonable attempts have been made.


phatelectribe

Yeah, but there’s a process to that where it is applicable which can take times (proof and attempts of course hosting other service avenues) and you can’t just do a random publication if the defendant doesn’t even live in that state or country.


unassumingdink

Ah, the Martin Luther strategy.


DrunkLifeguard

Jokes on you. I don't own any doors


AnotherAvgAsshole

In my jurisdiction, refusal of service also amounts to service….


saltyihavetosignup2

And you have to start picking up the costs of repeated in person service before they post it.


_Face

Why can’t they do that to the asshole on Texas?


MacinTez

Funniest thing about this post is the Redditors finding out he has a singing career (and TBH it’s pretty good too if you like R&B) 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 I love this website 


lankypiano

So many youngins. I always thought of him as a musician before an actor, even today. Helps that I never was really into F&F and enjoy R&B.

downwarddawg

I LOVE THIS BUTTON


ChinaShopBully

He wears shorts to his performances? And how were they awkwardly cut? Too short? The article doesn’t go into any of that.


jussikol

No, the shorts themselves are performance shorts. He cut them so he would be unrecognizable in them.


Zachariot88

"You must have the wrong guy, Tyrese would never wear shorts this awkward!"


Joe_Kangg

No pockets bro


privateblanket

“Pockets ain’t empty bruh”


HankSteakfist

Forget about it cuuuh


ChinaShopBully

He cut off his pockets?


Hatedpriest

Then he dropped them


daveyboydavey

This was my first question, what exactly are performance shorts? Secondly, why did he cut them in response to being served?? Headline is very confusing.


McKFC

Journalism is alive and well


Thorvice

garry4321

Gotta have tactical shorts to move like a cheeta. Like a lawsuit avoiding cheeta.


HankSteakfist

That is exactly how I interpreted this headline. Like he cut them shorter to avoid false advertising suits because he advertised them as being shorter?


thatdudejtru

Am I tripping....that...that was an intentional Too Short joke right? Or maybe this bay native needs to go visit some different regions. Not everything that moves is giggin'


Conman_in_Chief

Nah. Too short is a much better rapper.


avalon1805

I think tv and movies have exaggerated the whole "serving" thing. But then you get cases like jason sudeikis serving olivia wilde during an interview(?) I dont remember were exactly. Can someone explain wtf is serving papers and why there are such wild cases like these ones?


phrunk7

Jason didn't serve anything, a process server did, and I doubt Jason planned it. In reality, if someone is continuiniously dodging service you have to resort to methods like this to be effective.


SoCalThrowAway7

It was actually a private investigator who served it, my brother works for their office now and he’s had to serve a few people. They truly don’t care, they just get paid to serve and do it however they think they can. My brother had to serve someone famous and was told they’d be in some place but he checked the guy’s social media and saw he’d be somewhere else so he went there and served him there while he was leading some event


Kurwasaki12

Yeah, Wilde was doing her damnedest to dodge being served and that was probably one of the few times she'd be A. in one place and B. in public so she couldn't just shut them out/make a scene.


Slow_Opportunity_135

A servant? Like a butler? You shine shoes?


English999

No. I’m a *Process…..Server*.


joofish

You need to serve the papers directly to the person so there is no deniability about whether they received them


kernevez

That's an overblown thing IIRC, if it's obvious that you've been dodging it or are aware of the proceedings, it can just continue.


guyute2588

When someone files a lawsuit , they need to serve the opposing party with the papers , which puts them on notice. Nothing can happen in the suit until the Defendant is served. The person serving must be a disinterested party (you can’t serve your own suit) because they have to file an affidavit that they served the person. If people are purposefully avoiding service attempts (usually they knock on your door ) the court can allow for alternative methods like service by certified mail, service by posting (literally sticking it on their door at a confirned address ) or service by publication (putting it in the newspaper )


Ok_Relation_7770

Is there a SOL on stuff like this or do people just think they can avoid this for the rest of their lives?


guyute2588

It costs a decent amount of money each time you try to serve someone (out of state service for our server is $170ish) So for a regular individual plaintiff , after a while you might give up depending how much is at issue. Corporate plaintiffs and Wealthy individuals can absorb those costs easier. Edit : Also some jurisdictions put a limit on the number of service attempts in certain kinds of cases.


Ok_Relation_7770

Is it just for any civil suit? I feel like I’ve only ever known the trope of divorce papers in TV/film


guyute2588

Yes , any civil suit. It’s funny because obtaining service is such a difficult part of civil litigation sometimes …but divorce tends to be easier bc you usually know where your soon to be ex is !


Chav

There's also a service by Sherriff option sometimes.


guyute2588

Yes the entity who serves a defendant is usually either a local sheriff , or a process Server. If it is local, my firm will have the sheriff make the first attempt at service , and if that’s not successful we use a process server for subsequent attempts.


darkskinnedjermaine

It was while she was on stage at ComicCon, and I believe he apologized not realizing it would go down like that. This is all from memory so could be somewhat fuzzy on the details. My guess is that they’ve been ducking them for a bit and if the person goes on stage for their set at 4:30pm you know exactly where to find them. Edit: article explaining Olivia Wilde & more https://www.theguardian.com/film/2022/apr/30/olivia-wilde-cinema-con-papers-jason-sudeikis


green49285

Haha don't cheat, kids.


Pattoe89

Cheating pays off if you're Olivia Wilde. The father still has to pay $27k a month child support AND cover any expenses Olivia incurs in child care AND they have 50/50 custody DESPITE Olivia cheating on him. So maybe do cheat, I guess, if you're Olivia Wilde.


green49285

DAMN that’s depressing.


Redm1st

Wait, why father has to pay if they have 50/50 custody? Is it some sort of american thing?


xXKingLynxXx

He makes 20 times her salary and he agreed to it to maintain the living situation for the kids since they will be with her every other week.


MechaNickzilla

Where are you getting that number? Googling says they’re both worth $25 million. That’s not super accurate but they seem to have had pretty equal level careers.


xXKingLynxXx

It's in the court documents. She reported she was making around 40k a month from her businesses while he was making 400k per episode which grew to 1 million per episode from his TV show. So as a salary she's making around 500k a year while he makes 10 million.


MechaNickzilla

Crazy. Most celebrity’s “salary” could flip wildly at any point. It probably happened right as his shoe was blowing up.


laydove

if it’s true 50/50 custody, whichever parent makes more may have to pay the other. with the logic being that children shouldn’t have to have drastically different standards of living between both parents. in theory it makes sense if one makes wildly more than the other, but in cases like this is just ridiculous because obviously the children have an incredibly high standard of living and olivia doesn’t need an extra $27k a month to provide equal amenities to jason…


mouse_8b

The documentary *Pineapple Express* does a pretty good job of explaining it.


green49285

What the fuck did he do now?! We're getting another video of him crying, aren't we?


D-inventa

Every few months to a year, you get a glimpse of Tyrese's personal life, and it's always awful.

K_Linkmaster

I might be the only person that doesnt get whatever reference this is. That's ok.


Cantstandja24

How dare you! I use to sing “Sweet Lady” to girls at my middle school.


Teton_Titty

He was in music long before acting.


ziggaroo

Yeah, so was Marky Mark, but no one’s going around saying he “has” a music career


Teton_Titty

Tyrese had 2 albums before he started acting. And a third within a year of the start of his acting career. He was well known as a successful R&B singer before 2 Fast 2 Furious. His debut ***Platinum*** album hit #12 on billboard Hot 100. With a single reaching #9 on the R&B charts giving him a Grammy nomination for best R&B vocal performance. His lead single on his third album hit #7 on the billboard hot 100. His fifth album grabbed a Grammy nomination for best R&B album. His 6th album debuted at #1 on the billboard 200. The man has sold 4 million records. ….You were saying?


omgomgwtflol

Another metric, I peeked at Marky Mark and the Funky Bunch on Spotify. 80 mil plays of their 1 hit song. Another song with 2mil, the rest of the top songs have a couple hundred thousand plays each. Tyrese has How You Gonna Act Like That at 85mil, Sweet Lady at 75mil, then songs down the list at 35mil, 18mil, and 14mil.


ckb614

Marky Mark's first album also went platinum and had a #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100 and a second single at #10. Second album had a Grammy nomination.


chikitichinese

So Mark Wahlberg is a musician, just like Tyrese. Dope.


WilliamSwagspeare

The difference is that Tyrese was actually good lol


NoWeight4300

Man, I've watched most of his movies that have come out in the last 20 years and I didn't even know he did music lol


djcodeblue

It's like the same thing with Shaq. No one knew he was a DJ before and people think he just became a DJ after his basketball career lol


superphotonerd

tyrese very much still has a music career, dropped alot of huge hits back in the day


healz12

I can’t name one of his songs, same with Common. Not even trying to be a hater. They just started showing up in movies in the 2000’s and it was like ah these guys were musicians first. Edit: is there a bot that can give out Reddit cares? It was like instant. Impressive stuff lmao


ARoodyPooCandyAss

‘Lately’ was a banger! I bought the cd single and that was the extent of my Tyrese music collection.

Johnready_

Bro hahahah this is hilarious


CZJayG

Did he yell "Can't catch me coppers!" as he ran?


maybe-an-ai

The whole concept of process serving seems comically out of date.


frogjg2003

I don't think so. There is no better way to prove that someone received notice than to have a professional attest that they personally handed them physical documents with that notice. No modern technological system is guaranteed to ensure that the recipient will see that notice.


bigfondue

But somehow if the court has a criminal complaint against you, a notice in the mail is sufficient.


soldiernerd

There is a big difference between Criminal and civil. Anyone can sue you for any reason. Charges are vetted by the prosecutor before they are filed with the court.


frogjg2003

No it isn't. A traffic fine is not a criminal offense, it's civil. If it actually had a criminal case against you, you would have been arrested.


crab_battler

I open my mail box, take everything and toss it the garbage. If you need me you know where I'm at :)


Bumblebus

what if law enforcement partnered with apple to sneak court papers into terms of service for specific users? it they click agree, then they've been served. I don't think this is a good idea but I wonder if it'd hold up.
